The world lost a great actor in Meshach Taylor, who passed away on Saturday night after battling cancer.

The 67-year-old was surrounded by family and friends in his California home at the time.

We previously mentioned that the family of Mr. Taylor posted a message to his fans, and their sentiments still apply:

“Our friends who know and love us, please offer your prayers for his peace and blazing light as he ascends to the heavens. Those who need to call the family please do. Those who desire to post memories, we are open and graciously accepting all gestures of peace.”

Peace, love, and light to all of you as you go through this difficult time.

In July, father John McCain was diagnosed with stage 4 glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, which also claimed Beau's life.

When the 33-year-old began crying, the politician went over and consoled her, adding:

"There is hope... And if anybody can make it, your dad [can]."

Biden is also optimistic about "breakthroughs that are occurring now," regarding potential treatment options and cures.

"There's a lot of things happening. Any of you who have somebody who is diagnosed with gliobastoma, which is about as bad as it gets, there's breakthroughs that are occurring now... And it can happen tomorrow."
